Incredibly good
"This one smells like a fine cream" - with these words La Peau Nue was sprayed on me at Celine. And yes, to a certain extent I agree: the fragrance is very classy, powdery and wonderfully well-groomed But at the same time it is also a little strange, almost eerie, but in a positive sense...
The beginning is different than I expected. I smell a clear paper note, with slight hints of rose. And an edge that I can't quite put down to the mixture of bergamot, rice and vetiver. It's a bit like Dioramour: there's something lurking in the background that I can't put my finger on. But it smells completely different, only the feeling is similar. So absolutely no animalism, just something that somehow doesn't fit, but that makes the fragrance so wonderfully imperfect. This makes it not "just" a cream fragrance, but a cream fragrance with the icing on the cake.
Of course, I can also clearly smell the gorgeous celestial iris butter, which gradually dominates the fragrance. However, the rose remains present in the background throughout.
Overall, the fragrance fascinates me and I love wearing it. The opening is somehow beautiful and irritating at the same time. It's as if the fragrance doesn't match the skin at all or as if you're putting on someone else's skin... After a few minutes, it melts and almost becomes its own fragrance. Somehow eerie, but also exciting and simply beautiful.
